Journalist Post.

Hi readers! I'm Esmeralda, the journalist of this week. This is an interactive role which consists of collecting some photos and commenting other interesting blogs related to the topic we are working on.  While the members of the group are talking about the ideas, planning how to carry on the new task or doing the mind map, I have to take photos of that process.

I have also commented on one blog from people of the class, and other blog from outside the class. Si here you can see the comments:

This one is from the blog of Hide & Seek:

This second comment is posted in a blog from another student. He posts his reflections and thoughts about his classes on his personal blog and I have found interesting his viewpoint   of the topic:

Also, here it is the link of Pablo's blog:

And here you can see some photos of our work during this week:

On 26st of March, the group started to organize the ideas of how to carry on the new task of the week.  We started to read the instructions of the task in class and this afternoon we worked on the two topics. 

On 27st of March, we continued working on class and we started to make the comparisons between the actual educational law (LOMCE) and the previous one (LOE). We decided to divide the work in order to find more information easily.  

 

On 28st of March, we organized the ideas on the concept map. Firstly, we did it in a draft and then, we did it on Examtime, the tool that we chose to do the concept map.

 
  

On 31st of March, we worked with Hide & Seek and with GiveMe7 unifying the concept map of each topic and putting marks to the different concept map of the groups. 

As a result, I have enjoyed very much this role because it is more interactive than the others. I have taken different photos and I have worked with people of other group which was really interesting.  We shared our different points of view about the topic and we made together a concept map summarizing the information of the different concept map that we had.

We tried to do the task carefully and we put a lot of effort on it. We tried to understand the law and we tried to synthesize all the aspects in an easy way.  

See you!

Stars' Post.

Hello! We’re Raquel and Rosana, and this week we have the role of stars. During the last week, we had the video of the presentation: Raquel is the voice of it, and Rosana did the sections of the video.

When we arrived to the classroom, all the stars went to the teacher’s table and put their videos on the computer in order to be ready at time. We thought that the presentation was similar to the others, but we surprised when Linda told us that she had put all the videos and each group had to evaluate to the others one, like Eurovision. Then, Linda put the videos in order to we can evaluate in the best way, being critical, although some scores wasn’t critical. When all the videos had been seeing, Linda asked us to say a summary of our video, and Rosana said: 

“We had a video telling a story about the content that we had acquired during the course, and to sum up, we did a summary of the competences.” 

After that, the stars of each group had to be the representatives of their group to say the scores of each video. When Linda chose the group that had to talk, the stars got up and say, for example in our case: 

“Hello Linda! We are Raquel and Rosana from the group The Little Ants; and our scores are... Three points for Step by Step! Four points for T8T! Five points for Education Rush Hour! Six points for C’mon Tutankamon! Seven points for Hide & Sick! Eight points for Brainstorming! Ten points for Teachleaders! And... Twelve points for... Give me 7!” 

And each group said the same, but each one with their scores, of course.

Stars: Rosana Sánchez Robles y Raquel Lorenzo Franco.

Journalist Post

Hi, dear readers. I am Blanca and this week I had the role of journalist. This role is very interactive, because when the members of the group were giving their ideas for the presentation, were talking about the new task or doing the poster board and the Pearl Tree, I had to take photos and videos of that. I enjoy this role very much.

I also had to comment other blogs from people of the class and a blog from outside the class. These were the comments:

• The first of all was in T8T’s blog:

• The second one was in The Teachleaders’ blog:

• The last one was in a blog from outside the class. The blog is from a girl of Chester and she did a Treasure Hunt with people of her city:

I have to add that the Treasure Hunt I like the most was the one of the group called "C'mon Tutankamon" which consists on an activity with the parts of the house and the media they chose, the power of the photoshop which can distorts the real perception of the kids.

Here you have some videos and photos of the work I have done during the week. I hope you enjoy it!

On 11st of February, the group starts the new task of the week in Organization class. The group was giving ideas of the election of the countries. In class, we decided to do the comparition between France and Mexico. 

We continue after lunch in the classrooms of work at the Faculty of Philosophy in order to try to make a progress in the presentation.We started doing the comparision between the different projections, here you can see the facilitator of this week, Rosana.

Here we have our stars of the week preparing their presentation on Tuesday 11st in the afternoon (Alba and Raquel).

Then, we started to express our ideas in the poster board. In this photo you can see a member of the group, María, drawing and doing the final details of the poster.
On Wednesday 12nd of February, the group study a bit what we had learnt these days and think in things we can add to our task.

On Thursday 13rd of February, we continue
our work in Organization class. We have most
of the work done. We asked some cuestions
to Isabel in order to check that our work was
being well done.








The following days we continue with the task in our houses because each member of the group were in our respective cities. In that way, we asked our doubts through Skype or Whatsapp.

On 17th of February, we have the presentation of the groups of the class. The teacher distributed the class in groups depending in the role that each person have:

These are some pictures of poster boards of the groups in class.

Here you have some photos of the presentations about the topic of the week: Cartography maps, media and treasure hunt.

I like very much the topic of this week because I have learnt new things I did not know. An example of that it is I did not know that with the different projections, the countries have distinct measures. In this way, since we are young, we learn in an inappropriate way, in my point of view.

This week we did the task faster, although we hardly had time in class. We already had more practice and I hope that in the next few weeks it keeps better. I also have to add that some projections in the task, such as the Azimuthal Projection, have very few pages where to find information, but I think we could resolve it.

Best regards!
